16、y. The axiom that buildings should be accessible to disabled people is firmly established. In 1967, BSI published CP 96, Access for the disabled to buildings. The Chronically Sick and Disabled Persons Act 1 was enacted in 1970 (and amended in 1976) with the requirement in Section 4 that buildings to
17、 which the public, or some sections of the public, have access should, wherever practicable and reasonable, be accessible. In 1979, CP 96 was revised as BS 5810. The Disabled Persons Act, 1981 2 included in Section 6 a requirement that provision of access and facilities for disabled people in public
18、 buildings should be in accordance with BS 5810 in order that access should be more effectively secured. Following consultations on how Section 6 of the 1981 Act might be implemented, the Government decided that the intentions of the legislation would be better satisfied by using building regulation
19、s as a control instrument. Regulations came into force in Northern Ireland from December 1984, in Scotland from March 1985 and in England and Wales from August 1985. This has subsequently been reinforced by the Disability Discrimination Act 1995 3. A basic tenet of building law is that access provis
20、ion has to be complemented by egress provision, and it is on this account that this part of BS 5588 has been prepared. It has been assumed in the drafting of this standard that the execution of its provisions will be entrusted to appropriately qualified and experienced people. As a code of practice,
21、 this British Standard takes the form of guidance and recommendations. It should not be quoted as if it were a specification and particular care should be taken to ensure that claims of compliance are not misleading. This publication does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a cont
22、ract. Users are responsible for its correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. In particular, attention is drawn to 4.3.

24、anagement to aid it in making the best use of the facilities described in this part of BS 5588. It is envisaged that those responsible for the management of existing buildings would adopt the principles underlying this standard and its recommendations as part of their routine administrative procedur
25、es. In many instances, it would be sufficient simply to take account of the advice to management that is contained in BS 5588-12to ensure that the use of a building is facilitated, notwithstanding an individuals disability. 1 Scope This part of BS 5588 provides guidance, additional to that in the ot
26、her parts of BS 5588, for designers, the building construction team and building managements on incorporating into new buildings, or buildings that are being altered, measures that enable disabled people to be assisted to safety in the event of a fire. It applies to all buildings except single-famil
27、y dwelling houses, flats and maisonettes and buildings used as a house in multiple occupation. This part of BS 5588 is not applicable to buildings purpose built for disabled people, including Health Care Premises which are covered by specific guidance documents issued by Government Departments and N
28、HS Estates. NOTE 1These are usually provided with means of escape that are more comprehensive than those recommended in this part of BS 5588. People with learning difficulties are not catered for in this standard as they need to be treated no differently from children or the very elderly with regard
29、s to their needs. NOTE 2Application of this standard to existing buildings is covered in Annex A. 2 Normative references The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this British Standard.
